Super friendly staff are always a bonus at a hostel and the whole team were friendly and helpful. Good location for the bus station, bit of a walk from town but not too far. Very cosy, almost too hot sometimes and comfortable rooms. Nice view from the front which helped. Great breakfast with homemade bread. Recommended.

Booked this place primarily as it was near the bus station and I had an early morning bus to El Chalten. That said the main centre of town was only 10/15 mins walk down the road. Staff were great, spoke great English and gave really good recommendations for food and drinks. Definitely recommended

We had a comfortable stay here. The staff was very helpful and allowed us to leave our luggage here in between our travels. This is about 5 mins walk to the bus station which is convenient if you need to catch a bus to El Chalten

The people in the hostel were super nice and the place was cozy and clean. We were delay with the airplanes and they were able to always be in constant communication with us to arrange the pick up from the airport. They also help us with suggestion to excursions and put us in touch with locals to help us explore the area. Breakfast was really good Seba's pastries were delicious!!. Wishing I can come back soon already. Thank you for all you help!!

Travelled with my brother. Things I remember about this place: Great sized room (for once!) with lots of storage and good wifi. We had a good bathroom. They put on a good breakfast! Was a real treat to stay there and would definitely stay there again next time I was in El Calafate. This was booked as a stop gap measure before we moved onto our next place but I was a bit sad to leave. They took credit card knowing it's better for foreigners, even though they would’ve liked to take cash (better for them).

We just needed a place to sleep before an early morning bus ride, and this was perfect. This was very close to the bus terminal. It’s simple, but it was all we needed for one night. The staff was friendly and helpful.

Friendly staff. The breakfast was good for hostel standards. If you travel by bus, its located near the main bus terminal and about 15-20min walk to the city center. The floor in the room looked extremely dirty. They show nice wooden parquet floor on all photos in Internet, which is not true. Not much place in the bathroom, no hair-dryer. The sleep quality is quite bad because of very thin walls and lack of isolation (you can hear people speaking in other rooms).

Friendly and helpful staff! They helped booking excursions. Room was very clean and beds very comfortable. Only a 5 minute walk to bus station and 15 minutes walk to downtown El Calafete! I highly recommend this place!

Hosteria Los Gnomos was easy for us to find after a very late arrival (1:30 a.m.) by car. The desk clerk spoke no English, but we managed using Google Translate! Our rooms were basic, clean, comfortable. The breakfast was really basic: a couple of bread choices, some yogurts, a couple of cereal choices. However, that's what I usually eat at home. We had a car so getting to/from the hotel to town was easy for us. Would stay there again.

Walking distance from bus station, and 15 min walk from downtown or cheap taxi ride. Friendly, helpful, staff, good breakfast. It is neat and clean. Good value for money. Definitely more value for my money than expected. Will definitely go back
